Avient Corporation, 33587 Walker Road, Avon Lake, Ohio USA 44012
THE CHALLENGE
Beverage selections can say a lot about who you are
and what you aspire to be.
In fact, a
2015 Packaging Matters™ report from MeadWestvaco
indicates that over 25% of alcoholic beverage
consumers say that packaging is “very” or “extremely”
impactful in their decision to purchase a product.

PHTHALATES FACTS
PHTHALATES ARE KNOWN
TO BREAK DOWN IN THE
HUMAN BODY
Research has shown that after
entering the body, phthalate
are broken down into metabolites
within minutes and pass out
quickly in urine.2
PHTHALATE EXPOSURE
IS CONSIDERED LOW
Despite the fact that phthalates
are used in a wide range of
products, human exposure from
all sources is considered to be
extremely low.2
PHTHALATES ARE A USEFUL
CHOICE FOR HEALTHCARE
Flexible vinyl tubing does not
react with most medications,
allowing for reliable
administration of drugs, while
flexible vinyl bags prevent blood
contamination and extend shelf
life of the blood.3
PHTHALATES ARE
REGULATED
Based on earlier studies, a few
specific phthalates have been
banned for use in toys or other
items for sale to children
under twelve to reduce risk of
overexposure through hand-to-
mouth behaviors.

Report
According to the 2021 Circularity Gap Report, our global economy is only 8.6%
circular.
The report also identifies strategies for nearly doubling that figure to
17% by 2030 by identifying sectors with a high potential for change.
